VESTAL, N.Y. – The UMass Lowell softball team (21-26) will have to wait one more day for their first chance at an America East Championship. The title game between the No. 2 seeded River Hawks and the No. 1 UAlbany Great Danes (30-14) that was originally slated for 12 p.m. today, Saturday, May 12, has been postponed to tomorrow, Sunday, May 13, at 11 a.m. due to rain in the area.
Â
The two teams have already met once at the conference tournament, as UMass Lowell battled to an extra-innings, 5-2 victory in the winners' bracket final on May 11 to secure a spot in the title game. The Great Danes, who moved to the losers' bracket final, eliminated No. 3 Stony Brook to earn a rematch with the River Hawks. Â
Â
Due to the double elimination format of the tournament, if UAlbany wins the 11 a.m. game on Sunday, it would force an if necessary game at 1:30 p.m. to determine the ultimate winner. The tournament champion will receive an automatic bid to the 2018 NCAA Tournament.
Â
This River Hawks have already made history this week, as their first round victory against Stony Brook on May 10 marked the first ever Division I post-season win for any women's team at UMass Lowell. The squad will now look to capture the first America East Conference title on the women's side for the university.
